Strategic Estates Partnerships

We’re industry leaders in estates development and provide solutions to a range of bodies including the NHS, local authorities, emergency services and private organisations. We provide advice, investment, development and estate management services to unlock your aspirations and ensure your estate is fully utilised and value is fully realised.

We work with each organisation differently to understand your ambitions, your culture and your current property portfolio. We bring bags of energy, up to date innovation and the right people to allow respectful challenge and debate.

Then, if you would like us to, we can go on and deliver it. Part public sector owned, and with our own investment portfolio, we share your vision of high quality, fit for purpose facilities that support service transformation and are flexible as delivery models evolve.

The team bring fresh insight into strategic estates decision making, with a particular expertise in supporting NHS bodies to secure long term efficiencies by thinking a little differently. Their partnering approach and open style is what attracted us to working with the team in the first place and this works particularly well in the health sector.

Estates Strategy & Planning

Management and maintenance of any organisation’s estate is often the second largest cost after its people. These key areas play a critical role in enabling strategic transformation, while the cost efficiencies will have a major impact on your organisation’s long term performance and sustainability.

An estates strategy forms an integral part of service planning and must not be viewed in isolation, but in conjunction with ongoing service needs and strategic objectives.

Put simply, we break this down into three main areas:

Where are we now? Together we look at your current position and performance to establish a baseline against which development planning can take place.

Where do we want to be? We review your estate requirements, including financial management and the rationalisation of space, hand in hand with your service ambitions, to produce a realistic estates strategy.

How do we get there? The strategy is then transferred into a deliverable framework which the organisation can review annually, giving clear operational direction and enabling performance management every step of the way,

Throughout each step we offer respectful challenge to your team to ensure that all avenues have been considered to ensure you have a robust and effective plan for when you need to make key strategic decisions or investments/disinvestments

As part of the national AVP Framework, we provide strategic advice, development and delivery services to the NHS and local authorities in particular, who want to transform their health and social care estates for the better.

There remains a critical need to demonstrate a sufficiently robust understanding of the available health estate and to align this with commissioning decisions to allow us to drive efficiencies and save precious resources. Our partnership with the team at Citycare/Shared Agenda is immensely valuable in helping us to achieve this and their proactive can-do approach clearly demonstrates the value they add to our strategic aims and objectives

Case Study

Investments & Funding

Our partners in the public sector often find that service needs are increasing whilst budgets are going in the wrong direction.

We have helped them to raise investment to help them to achieve their transformation strategies. We develop affordable and deliverable solutions, releasing value from service or estate efficiencies to help make schemes affordable and providing finance where required from our network of funders.

We support you every step of the way by developing compelling and fundable business cases, helping to secure relevant approvals in a timely way and getting on with the job of bringing real value back to the system.

With our partners in the private sector we have a knack of bringing together complex development schemes that others may have thought too challenging. We work with you to establish how we can meet the objectives of all shareholders and stakeholders in a project and realise the true value of assets.

Our track record shows that we have worked on major strategic commercial schemes, innovative new markets and challenging sites to create long term value. We give confidence to funders and shareholders by working with stakeholders from the earliest stages to try to build something of lasting value to its community.

As investors in both companies, we have seen first-hand the benefits that the team’s innovative approach can have when working with public bodies. The company is leading the field in terms of partnership working and has a fantastic track record of transforming estates to enable and support service transformation. We are proud to be partners.

Case Study

Project Management & Construction Delivery

Delivering your tailored scheme considerately, safely, on time and to budget.

We manage construction projects from the initial concept through to construction completion, with the added benefit of facilities management knowledge at front of mind. Wherever we build, irrespective of the scheme’s size, we focus on employing local companies and local people. This way, we engage respectfully with the end users of the facility from the earliest possible moment and help to leave a positive community legacy.

Case Study

Public Consultation

The best schemes start with a genuine attempt to understand the needs of your stakeholders. This can be consulting with patient groups, staff, key decision makers or neighbouring residents or businesses. Each scheme is different but good public consultation can help to improve the project significantly. Listening to concerns or suggestions at the earliest stage avoids expensive mistakes later.

We work with you to understand all of the potential stakeholder groups and then develop an appropriate strategy to engage with them. For more information check out SharedInsights

Case Study

New Developments

With service needs increasing and capital budgets under increasing pressure, you may need an investment partner to help you achieve your transformation strategy.

We help you to develop robust business cases that are affordable and deliverable. This could be achieved by working within revenue affordability envelopes, releasing value from your other surplus assets that you may not have considered, or we can share your risk on invest to save projects.

Our track record speaks for itself. If you have a complicated estates puzzle to solve, give us a call and we will put our thinking caps on.

We start with identifying the service mix and the business case for the new development, which supports any funding applications and the statutory approvals process. We would expect you to need independent economic analysis to sense check your different delivery options from a value for money perspective, but we are still happy to work with you at risk to help you to clarify your cost inputs.

We’ll undertake feasibility studies, appraisals for different site options and engage all of your stakeholders from the start to give your scheme the maximum chance of success.

We can build on your behalf using your capital funds/released asset value as contribution and/or we can source investment finance and provide you with a leased option; it’s up to you.

Using the latest Building Information Modelling technology, we ensure cost accuracy, design deliverability and put everything in place for your building’s long term sustainability.

Applying a single team approach, we’re with you every step of the way.
